UNSPSC 50425412 Split yellow peas (Commodity) covers dried legume products procured by state and local governments for institutional food service, including correctional facilities, school-based child nutrition programs, and state agency meal operations. The code appears in recent state and local solicitations alongside related dried beans — kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, and black beans — all acquired under similar specifications requiring USDA-consistent grading, triple-cleaning, and bulk institutional-cooking readiness. State and local buyers under this family include state departments of corrections, state procurement offices acting for educational or institutional use, city school nutrition programs, and state agencies acquiring supplies for multi-facility food service operations. The scope encompasses product quality certification (moisture content, foreign-material thresholds, defect limits), delivery logistics (palletization, FOB destination, shelf-life minimums), and compliance with FDA, USDA, HACCP, and Good Manufacturing Practice standards.

Recent activity concentrates in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast. Oregon's Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB, due June 19, 2026) with a 10% combined Oregon-preference evaluation credit (5% for in-state fabrication, 5% for in-state headquarters), FOB destination to Salem, and a historical price reference of $0.493 per pound from incumbent Intersect USA; the State of Oregon also requested dried black beans (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026) triple-cleaned to USDA standards for institutional use. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in 880-bag increments (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), with delivery included in all-inclusive bid pricing. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children (RFP 2026017, due August 4, 2026) with daily Monday-Friday delivery before noon, local-vendor preference within 5%, and Texas Department of Agriculture compliance required.
